Arbroath struggled to get a foothold in the game. Brechin's midfield and frontmen looked lively, were generally first to the ball and kept our defence occupied winning a series of corners. Our attacks were sporadic - a couple of breaks forward by Doris and Flyer's aggression. Hislop headed good balls down for fellow attackers but no-one was around to capitalise.
Arbroath appeared ina ahcnge white strip second half - in the bright sunshine the two strips were not sufficiently differentiated first-half.
A few minutes into the second half, Redman received a straight red for hauling down the Brechin player on the edge of the box and Charlie King scored easily. two more goals came quickly from all-too easy attacking moves, the second when raeside unwisely tried to dribble out immediately from the restart.
Some pride was restored when Raeside went forward to head home a great Watson freekick and it looked like we were trying to save face, but mCallister scored a fourth to restore the easy winning matgin
